According to Project Implicit’s results, I have a 27% preference to white people. I am not so sure about the test’s outcome. I do not believe that I prefer one race over another. As far as I know, that is the case for most people who don’t carry any prejudices against others. Two people next me got the same results as I did so I feel like it may be common occurrence. I wish I had more black friends, but in the town we live in, it's not a secret that we don't have that many black families here. I have a good friend who is black, and I don't prefer to be around him any more or less than my white friends. As far as I know, a person is a person regardless of their skin color. If you think about it, it really doesn't make sense why people believe whites are superior to everyone else. That's true because their skin is lighter? Why is it that having lighter skin makes you more of a man than someone with darker skin? It really make no sense what so ever. I got wondering when I saw the section of community matters. I still believe that the results were wrong, but our community does not have much diversity. That could very well play a part in my results.
